Definitions
- This invention relates to a surgical fastener applying instrument. More particularly, this invention relates to an arrangement for a circular anastomosis surgical stapling instrument. Such an instrument is disclosed in EP-A-449 394, which has the technical features of the pre-characterising part of claim 1 below.
- the center rod is connected with a mechanism, for example, which employs a wing nut at the proximal end of the instrument, so that the rod can be moved back and forth independently of the staple assembly so as to adjust the anvil assembly relative to the staple assembly.
- a pusher tube is mounted within the instrument for movement via a handle mechanism so as to cause a firing of the staples from the staple assembly towards the anvil assembly.
- each handle has been pivotally mounted so as to be moved toward the other handle during manual squeezing by a surgeon.
- Each handle also includes a lever arm within the instrument which engages against the pusher tube so as to move the tube in a proximal direction.
- Circular stapling instruments have also been provided with safety locks in order to prevent the squeezing together of the handles prematurely. That is, the safety locks have been provided in order to prevent the handles from moving towards each other before a surgeon has manipulated the anvil assembly into position for the firing of the staples. While these instruments have been used safely and effectively for years, it would be advantageous to provide the feature of preventing the anvil member from being able to be moved once a fastener firing safety lock has been released. Also a continuing need exists to develop these types of surgical stapling instruments which require fewer parts and materials to manufacture, thereby reducing costs of production and requiring less labor to assemble the parts. Additionally, if the instruments are disposable, i.e. single use only, use of less materials is desirable to decrease the amount of medical waste generated during a surgical procedure.
- U.S. Patent No. 5,119,983 discloses a removable tip portion to facilitate this procedure. After piercing tissue, the tip portion is removed and the anvil is joined to the stapler.
- U.S. Patent No. 5,104,025 discloses a tip portion for piercing tissue and a rigid sleeve for protecting the tip portion. The entire rigid sleeve reciprocates relative to the tip portion by means of a spring to expose the tip portion. The spring also serves to secure the sleeve to the stapling head portion of the instrument. While the removable tip embodiment of U.S. Patent No. 5,119,983 has been used successfully for years, there is always a need for more cost efficient devices.
- the present invention is defined in claim 1 below, and provides a surgical fastener applying instrument which may include an anvil lockout mechanism which works in cooperation with the safety release mechanism for the fastener firing member.
- the instrument of the present invention can be lightweight and easy to manufacture. It need not have so many component parts as similar available instruments and, therefore, is less costly to produce.
- One embodiment of the present surgical instrument includes a housing having proximal and distal end portions, a shaft extending from the housing distal end portion, the shaft having proximal and distal end portions, a fastener-carrying cartridge positioned at the shaft distal end portion, the cartridge having a plurality of fasteners disposed therein, a fastener-firing member operatively associated with the fastener-carrying cartridge, at least one lever extending from the housing, the lever being adapted to move the fastener-firing member to expel the fasteners from the cartridge, an anvil member disposed opposite the cartridge, an elongated member operatively associated with the anvil member for moving the anvil member relative to the cartridge, and locking means disposed within the housing for locking the elongated member, and, therefore the anvil member, the locking means being movable between at least a first position and a second position such that when the locking means is in the first position the elongated member is movable and when the locking means is in the second
- the locking means is operatively associated with a safety mechanism for preventing movement of the at least one lever, the safety mechanism being movable between at least a first position and a second position.
- a mechanism for adjusting the distance between the fastener head assembly and the instrument housing is disclosed. This mechanism permits accurate calibration of the instrument after assembly, thereby obviating the need to closely monitor calibration during assembly and the potential need to rework assembled product.
- the instrument of the invention includes a tip portion adapted to pierce tissue associated with a movable anvil retaining member.
- a deformable protective member is also disclosed to prevent inadvertent contact between the tip portion and tissue.
- Yet another preferred embodiment includes structure disposed in the fastener head assembly for ensuring proper staple formation.
- the structure ensures the staples do not become over-crimped against the anvil.
- Instrument 10 includes elongate body portion 12 and handle section 14.
- Handle section 14 includes anvil adjustment member 16, lever lockout or safety member 18 and fastener firing levers 20.
- Fastener head portion 22 and anvil member 24 are disposed at the distal end of body portion 12.
- the materials utilized in the components of the surgical instrument of the present invention generally include such materials as polycarbonate for housing sections and related components, and stainless steel for such components which transmit forces.
- One preferred polycarbonate material is LEXAN® brand polycarbonate available from General Electric Company. However, equivalent alternative materials will readily come to the mind of those skilled in the art.
- Instrument 10 includes body or housing half sections 12a and 12b which are preferably molded and joined together by suitable fastening means such as rivets 28, or the like.
- elongated member 30 is slidably mounted within body portion 12, preferably by being securely mounted to helical cam member 32 by any suitable means such as, for example, welding or the like.
- Helical cam member 32 is slidably mounted within anvil adjustment member 16 by way of bushing 34 which is securely mounted in open end 36 of anvil adjustment member 16.
- Friction member 93 is disposed adjacent anvil adjustment member 16 to prevent relatively free rotation of the anvil adjustment member.
- both the mounting of bushing 34 and the camming of helical cam 32 is accomplished by compound pin 38 which has central portion 38a and extending portions 38b and 38c which are of reduced diameter. Portions 38a and 38b are press fitted into bores 40 and 42, respectively, located on bushing 34 and anvil adjustment member 16, respectively. Lower extending portion 38c serves as a camming pin and fits within the helical groove formed on the surface of helical cam 32.
- Anvil approximation indicator member 46 has extended portion 48 and is press fitted into proximal portion 50 of helical cam 32. Cap 51 is attached to proximal end 52 of anvil approximation indicator member 46.
- Cap 51 is preferably a colored piece which is easily visible through opening 54 formed near the proximal end of anvil adjustment member 16 to provide indication to the user when the anvil member is in the proper position for firing of the instrument.
- the distal end of elongated member 30 is provided with means to retain anvil member 24, which will be described in more detail below.
- the fastener firing mechanism of instrument 10 includes fastener firing member 56 which is slidably mounted within body portion 12 preferably such that fastener firing member 56 is disposed around elongated member 30.
- Fastener firing member 56 is preferably biased in a proximal direction by suitable biasing means such as spring 58.
- Fastener firing levers 20 are pivotably mounted to body portion 12 and have extended portions 60 which cross over each other in scissor-like fashion.
- Bearing block 62 is mounted on fastener firing member 56, for example, being held between flexible finger portions 64 and raised portions 66 which are formed in the side walls of fastener firing member 56, as best illustrated in Figs. 3 and 4.
- Fastener firing member 56 has bearing surfaces such as tabs 68 formed at the distal portion which serve to urge a pusher member within fastener head portion 22 in a distal direction in order to eject surgical fasteners 69, such as stainless steel or titanium staples, from fastener head portion 22.
- lever lockout member 18 is preferably spring biased to the locked out position by spring 67 in slot 91.
- Lever lockout member 18 is preferably spring biased to the locked out position by spring 67 in slot 91.
- Each of these lockout members are preferably mounted on instrument 10 in such a manner that they are fixed relative to each other and upon pivoting of lever lockout member 18, elongate member lockout member 70 also pivots.
- elongate member lockout member 70 has shoulder portions 73 and 75 formed therein as well as inwardly extending tab 79. The function of each of these portions of elongate member lockout member 70 will be described in further detail later herein.
- fastener-firing member 56 is shown as preferably being a generally U-shaped member formed from material which can transmit forces effectively and reliably such as stainless steel.
- Fastener-firing member 56 has side walls 72 and 74 which are connected by web 76.
- fastener-firing member 56 has extended portions or flexible bands 72a and 74a which are preferably formed integrally with walls 72 and 74, respectively.
- Band 72a is shorter than band 74a.
- the difference in the length of the two bands corresponds to the amount of curvature of body portion 12 so that when fastener-firing member 56 is mounted in body portion 12, the surfaces of tabs 68 form a plane parallel with the surface of the fastener pusher member (not shown ) .
- elongated member 30 is shown as a U-shaped member, similar to fastener-firing member 56.
- Elongated member 30 has side walls 78 and 80 which are joined by web 82.
- the cross-section dimensions of elongated member 30 are preferably such that elongated member 30 readily fits within fastener-firing member 56. This arrangement is desirable so that elongated member 30 and fastener-firing member 56 can slide independent of each other.
- elongated member 30 must also be formed to fit within the curved contour of body portion 12.
- elongated member 30 has extended portions or flexible bands 78a and 80a which are preferably formed integrally with walls 78 and 80, respectively. Similar to the construction of fastener-firing member 56, bands 78a and 80a of elongated member 30 are of different length. Elongated member 30 terminates at a distal end in a pair of opposed anvil-retaining portions 84 and 86.
- structure can be provided within body portion 12 (see 320 in Fig. 15) that serves to retain the side walls and bands of both elongated member 30 and fastener-firing member 56.
- Such structure can be of unitary construction and have grooves to direct longitudinal movement of the channels and bands.
- one or more seals can be disposed within body portion 12 to prevent the flow of gases therethrough.
- anvil-retaining portions 84 and 86 are preferably semi-circular in shape as best illustrated in the cross-section view of Fig. 8.
- anvil-retaining portions 84 and 86 are provided with flexible finger portions 88 and 90, respectively, each of which have a raised portion formed thereon, such as camming and retaining portions 92 and 94, respectively.
- Camming surfaces 96 and 98 formed by camming and retaining portions 92 and 94, respectively serve to cam flexible finger portions 88 and 90 radially outward upon insertion of the anvil into the distal end of instrument 10. Referring temporarily back to Fig. 2, once annular groove portion 100 of anvil shaft 102 passes between retaining portions 84 and 86, flexible finger portions 88 and 90 return toward their initial or at rest state so that retaining portions 92 and 94 seat in annular groove 100.
- extended portions 78a and 80a of elongated member 30 are preferably bent until the ends of anvil-retaining portions 84 and 86 are aligned and are then permanently joined together (as shown in Fig. 2), by suitable bonding techniques, such as, by welding.
- cut out portion 83 is formed to receive elongate member lockout member 70 when elongated member is properly positioned for firing the staples of instrument 10. As best illustrated in Figs. 6 and 7,cut-out portion 83 is preferably formed through most of web 82 and continues partially up side wall 80.
- anvil adjustment member 16 is rotated to move elongated member 30 and anvil 24 proximally until the user sees approximation indicator 46 appear in opening 54 of anvil adjustment member 16.
- elongate member 30 acts as a tension member as it pulls anvil 24 into position adjacent fastener head portion 22.
- lockout 70 Prior to alignment of cut-out 83 in elongate member 30 and extended portion 79 of elongate member lockout 70, lockout 70 is prevented from pivoting by contact between extended portion 79 and elongate member 30.
- lever lockout member 18 and elongate member lockout 70 are able to be pivoted by depressing, usually with the thumb, on lever lockout member 18.
- Members 18 and 70 can be interconnected by any suitable means, i.e., protrusion from one member entering a recess in the other.
- fastener-firing member 56 acts as a compression member as it ejects fasteners 69.
- FIG. 14-18 a first embodiment of the present invention shown as instrument 210 will now be described.
- components of the instrument of Figs. 14-18 which are similar or identical to those of the instrument shown in Figs. 1-13 have been labeled by adding 200 to the reference numerals of the instrument described above.
- anvil shaft 102 of Fig. 2 corresponds to anvil shaft 302 of Fig. 15.
- instrument 210 includes insert guide 320 which is preferably molded of a polycarbonate material such as LEXAN® available from the General Electric Company.
- Insert guide 320 is preferably molded to conform to the curvature of housing half-sections 212a and 212b so as to provide structural support for elongate member 230 and fastener-firing member 256.
- insert guide 320 is illustrated in a partially cut-away section to show the guide tracks which receive elongate member 230 and fastener-firing member 256 therein.
- outer guide tracks 322 are molded to receive sidewalls 272 and 274 therein and inner guide tracks 324 are formed to receive side walls 78 and 80 of elongate member 30 therein.
- Insert guide 320 thereby provides structural support upon longitudinal motion of either elongate member 230 or fastener-firing member 256, particularly at the point of curvature thereof. Insert guide 320 effectively reduces possible force transmission losses upon operation of instrument 210.
- seal half-sections 326a and 326b are formed to fit around notches formed on insert guide 320.
- Seal half-sections 326a and 326b are preferably molded of a hard rubber material which is molded to conform with the inner dimensions of housing half-sections 212a and 212b.
- seal half-sections 326a and 326b are molded to fit over elongate member 230 and fastener-firing member 256 so as to form a seal between the internal section of the instrument 210 which is distal of the seal half-sections 326a and 326b and the internal portions of instrument 210 which are proximal of seal half-sections 326a and 326b so as to inhibit the passage of gases thereby.
- An adjusting member such as collar 328 is mounted between the distal end of housing 212 and the proximal end of fastener head portion assembly 222.
- Collar 328 has ratchet teeth 330 formed on an inner surface thereof at the proximal end. Ratchet teeth 330 cooperate with ratchet teeth 332 formed on the distal end of housing half-sections 212a and 212b. Ratchet teeth 330 and 332 interact to provide for rotational advancement of collar 328 in a single direction.
- collar 328 Also formed on collar 328 are camming surfaces 334 and 336 which interact with camming surfaces 338 and 340 formed at the proximal end of fastener head portion 222.
- a purpose of collar 328 is to provide for post instrument assembly adjustment of the relative longitudinal positioning of fastener head portion assembly 222 with respect to the distal end of body portion 212. This adjustment capability is important so that instrument 210 may be calibrated to insure the proper positioning of anvil member 224 when cap 251 of anvil approximation indicator member 246 is positioned within opening 254 so as to indicate that instrument 210 is ready for firing of surgical staples 269.
- collar member 328 may be fixedly secured to the distal end of body portion 212 so that collar 328 is not permitted to rotate with respect thereto. This attachment may be accomplished by known suitable means such as, for example, bonding and/or by the use of a fastener such as a screw or a pin.
- Pusher back 342 is provided with longitudinally extending portions 344 which are configured to fit inside of knife ring 346 and are preferably sized to abut against a surface portion, such as cut ring 345, of anvil 224 upon firing of instrument 210.
- portions 344 of pusher back 342 contact a portion of anvil 224, pusher fingers 252 are prevented from traveling further, thereby limiting the degree to which surgical staples 269 may be crimped against anvil 224.
- elongate member 230 has tip 354 formed at the distal end to facilitate puncturing of tissue as desired by the user of instrument 210.
- Tip 354 is preferably sharp and formed by known methods such as, for example, grinding with suitable abrasives.
- Tip 354 is formed such that a hollow passageway or opening 356 is formed which passes longitudinally through the distal end portion of elongate member 230.
- Opening 356 on elongate member 230 is preferably sized so that it can receive shaft 302 of anvil 224 so that anvil 224 may be retained by the distal end portion of elongate member 230 in a similar manner as set forth above for elongate member 30 and anvil 24 for the embodiment of Figs. 1-13.
- a protective cover is provided, such as cover 358 which is preferably formed of a deformable elastomeric material. Cover 358 is provided with raised portions 360 which correspond to bores 362 formed on elongate member 230 proximal of tip 354.
- cover 358 In use, when elongate member 230 is extended past head portion assembly 222, cover 358 deflects upon contact with tissue to expose tip 354. After tip 354 and cover 358 pass through the tissue, cover 358 returns to a position which protects tip 354, thereby providing means for preventing inadvertent trauma by tip 354 to surrounding tissue.
- instrument 210 The operation of instrument 210 is similar to that of instrument 10 except as noted hereinabove. Accordingly, no separate description of the operation of instrument 210 will be provided at this point.
